[bluidkiti]

July 1: Breakthrough is imminent and will come like a flash of lightning, powerful and bright. You are on the cusp of renewed freedom and spiritual clarity. You can now leave the past behind once and for all and begin to move into the realm of glory, says the Lord. Let freedom reign. Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.

July 2: At this time many of you, My people, are bringing things to a conclusion. You will need to tie up loose ends at this juncture so that you can move on. Go forward with a clean slate as you leave the past behind and reach for the next goal both spiritually and naturally. Be strong and of good courage. Isaiah 43:18-19 Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.

July 3: Come into rest from all your busyness. Reflect on what has been good and bad so that you can streamline your efforts for greater effectiveness and efficiency. You are entering a new season that will require leaving the past behind with all of its trials and tribulations. It is time to focus on where you are spiritually and begin to draw nearer to Me, says the Lord. I am as close to you as your breath. Psalm 145:18-19 The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth. He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him; He also will hear their cry and save them.

July 4: When you are at an intersection of life and do not know how to proceed, you must quiet your soul and seek divine direction. You need wisdom before you launch out for the sake of moving forward. You do not have all of the facts necessary to make an informed decision. Wait until you have more information, says the Lord. Psalm 27:14 Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the Lord!

July 5: Even though you have endured some disappointments, know that I have not left nor forsaken you. You have been under My divine protection the whole time, and you will understand that those things that did not work out as you planned were points of correction. Stand firm in the knowledge that you are in divine order, says the Lord. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

July 6: Set your heart on spiritual excellence. You can do this by not being distracted with things of the world. There are many things that vie for your attention, so you must stay focused on what really matters in the long run. Be strong, and stay on course, says the Lord. Psalm 119:1-3 Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the Lord. Blessed are those who keep His testimonies, who seek Him with the whole heart! They also do no iniquity; they walk in His ways.

You are ready to proceed and take the next step in a series of actions and understanding necessary to this vital process of spiritual growth. I have called you to a closer walk with Me, and that will require that you leave behind the hindrances that keep you from intimacy with Me, says the Lord.

July 8: Even when situations and circumstances do not produce the outcome you expected, do not become discouraged and lose hope. There are other avenues you can take that will produce a different but better result than you were looking for. Be flexible as you pay attention to the leading of My Spirit, says the Lord. Romans 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

July 9: The key phrase for this time in your life will be patient continuance. Do your best to stay on track, and seek to always be in the flow of My Spirit, says the Lord. Life will not be without challenges, but neither will you be without solutions. I will give you the strength and ability to overcome every obstacle. Psalm 40:1 I waited patiently for the Lord; and He inclined to me, and heard my cry.

July 10: When you get overwhelmed with all that needs to be done, quiet your soul and find a place of peace where you can take one thing at a time. Lean on Me, says the Lord, for direction and guidance. Refuse to allow fear of failure to engulf you. I am with you to show you the way. 2 Timothy 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

July 11: I woke up this morning with the old song lyrics: Accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative, do not mess with Mr. Inbetween. I believe God is speaking to us to choose to have a good outlook on life and to do the best we can with what we have been given. Let faith rule. 2 Timothy 4:7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

July 12: If you set your mind to it, you can find viable solutions to nagging problems. You will be amazed at how simple it really is, and you can put it behind you. No more fussing and fuming about things that have very little significance in the long run. Quiet your soul and be sensitive to receiving My wisdom and direction, says the Lord. 2 Corinthians 1:12 For our boasting is this; the testimony of our conscience that we conducted ourselves in the world in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom but by the grace of God, and more abundantly toward you.

July 13: A spiritual portal is opening to reveal the path to achieving that which has been otherwise impossible. I will open an avenue of possibility that will serve your purpose and make your goal achievable. All you have to do is follow My leading and hold on to faith that I can do what you cannot. Be strong and resolute, says the Lord. Matthew 19:16 But Jesus looked at them and said to them: With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.
